Embedded System Management

The Unified Server Configurator (USC) is an embedded utility that enables systems and storage management tasks from an embedded environment throughout the server’s lifecycle.

The USC can be started during the boot sequence and can function independently of the operating system.

NOTE: Certain platform configurations may not support the full set of features provided by USC.

The following features of USC are supported on systems with Baseboard Management Controller (BMC):

•Installing an operating system

•Running diagnostics to validate the memory, I/O devices, processors, physical disks, and other peripherals

When an optional iDRAC6 Express card is installed, USC provides the following additional features:

•Downloading and applying firmware updates

•Configuring hardware and firmware
